Über diesen Feiertag
The Twelfth (July 12th) commemorates the Battle of the Boyne, marking the victory of Protestant King William of Orange over Catholic King James II and celebrating the Glorious Revolution. Major celebrations, especially in Northern Ireland, feature parades by the Orange Order and loyalist marching bands, Union Jack decorations, and large bonfires lit on the Eleventh Night. While a public holiday in Northern Ireland, celebrations also occur internationally (e.g., Scotland, Canada, Australia, West Africa).
